The best way is to get a plug-in adapter harness
from a stereo installer like best-buy so you don't
have to cut up the original harness..

This link has the factory wiring code:

go to your local circuit city and tell them you want a smart harness for a crx and one for a pioneer, and you will be set

I just installed a Sony CD player/radio in my CRX. The radio in my dad's Civic died, so I gave him my OEM radio since I had the Sony lying around. Wiring harness? Nah, I just cut the Honda plug and rewired the damn thing. I used the same wiring diagram posted above as well as a Sony one I found on the internet. Easy as pie. I would've soldered and used heat shrink on the wires but it was too damn cold yesterday! Electrical tape will have to do for until it gets warmer.
